I do not believe, as do so many musicians, that genius should be left to fight its way to the light.

To starve the soul with the body is to do worse than murder. Think, too, of what the public loses!

I'm a guy who likes to keep fighting five, six times a year, so if I ask for too much money, they might say, 'Well, we pay you too much.
